Victoria Day Weekend (aka the long weekend in May)



Kootenay National Park, BC

Not wanting to waste a weekend where the weather was nice and Colin was just coming off a graveyard shift. We were able to leave early Friday morning and explore some more places only a few hours drive from Calgary. This weekend we decided to visit Radium Hot Springs in British Columbia.

The drive through the mountains was beautiful and full of wildlife. Besides seeing many deer we even got to see a bear right on the side of the road.

Another roadside stop was Numa Falls. The kids loved climbing around the rocks and eating lunch next to the river.


We love packing as much in as possible so the kids got their first introduction to golf on the putting green, racquetball in the fitness area at the resort and swimming in two different pools at the hot springs: a hot pool and the cooler pool. The hot mineral water was wonderful to soak in and we enjoyed being outdoors with the kids.
